Hi All,

When my REXX program tries to access anothe file already being used by another JCL a message is displayed on the screen denoting the same. How do I supress this message and hanlde it in my REXX program?

Please advice.

It depends on the origin of the message.

In most cases, the OUTTRAP function will do the job. In other cases, you might need to use TSO PROFILE with NOINTERCOM & NOWTPMSG.

In few cases, there is nothing to do about it.
